It was not expecting much because there were not any real rogue changes, and without tier 9 / season 7 gear, the resilience change is absolutely devastating to the beloved rogue class. If you think the last PTR dueling event was difficult for rogues, this one is even worse as it is harder than ever to drop someone before you run out of cool downs with resilience change slowing down the tempo.

RMP will be very vulnerable to DK/lock/druid type of teams, at least earlier in the season, with DOT damage staying as is and RMP taking a flat 12% damage reduction. Rogue/lock synergy is probably not strong enough to beat DK/lock or warrior/lock. Destruction still has the same problem when it comes to getting an opening to nuke away, and your nukes will not hurt as much as it does now to end the fight instantly if left open. All the readers had a good July 4th! We stayed local this year for obvious reasons, how was your weekend?

I thought of a lot of ways Blizzard can buff hemo, but the easiest solution is probably making the debuff scale with attack power. Mutilate got its biggest buff with wound poison / deadly brew changes, if hemo added say, 300 wow gold to all of your white hits, 27/0/44 will definitely be a mainstream spec.

Also, with serrated blade offering armor penetration earlier in the tree, perhaps filthy tricks should provide resilience penetration? Shadow dance on one minute cool down is great, but ambush still needs to do enough damage against high resilience targets. When a shadow dance kidney shot does similar damage of a mutilate kidney shot (keep in mind mutilate can take improved kidney shot), something is wrong to buy World of Warcraft Gold.
